I've read th bently is 142-156. But higher also means more carbon buildup. -
Car looks real clean.
As far as the odometer, I'm not sure, I didn't really care because it's just my EtaComment

When I pulled my motor apart there was the msot carbon buildup you've seen in your life. It probably had way too much compression, lolOriginally posted by rumattComment

That's pretty steep, but I'm interested. Would I be nuts to take it?Comment

Yes, I'd be crazy? Or yes, you'd take it?Originally posted by cahomey
Keep in mind, overpaying by $300 isn't a big deal to me. I've spent a huge amount of time trying to find a clean car, and this one looks good.
But if I did need to resell for some reason, I need to not lose big.Comment

Well, I don't know where you're located but you could find that car for 3-4k here no problem.Comment

You're seriously telling me you can buy that car with the work done to it for 3K? Tough to believe.Comment

Don't let a few hundred dollars or a few easy to fix problems get between you and this car. I say buy it.sigpicComment

Ok, my car while not an "is" is a 1991 325i. I paid $1500 for this car with 195k on it. It came with H&R Sports and Bilstien Sports and just had a tranny flush. Although I did pull the motor to rebuild it, I could have kept driving it as wass. I found the main problem was an exploded pressure plate and it would have been back on the road with a new clutch kit.Originally posted by rumatt

Red, tan interior, H&R sport springs, Bilstein sports and 148k with minor oil pan gasket leak?
*looks outside to see if his car is still there*
If it's in good mechanical shape, 4500-5k is fair for a Cali car.

I"m in Cali and could'nt find a plastic bumper 325is. I looked for about two months then could'nt wait any longer. I purchased a 1990 325is for $5,500 with 112K on the clock. Only things wrong were fuel gauge jumps all over, AC does'nt blow cold, OBC is out, and the driver side seat is worn a little worse than the one in the pic you showed Other than that the interior is perfect. It had a service records and was a two owner car. It came from Illinios so ther was some under body surface rust but the car just had a repaint so the exterior is good to go. It also came with about $1700 in suspension and performance mods not to mention new tie rods, CABs, and RSMs. But it was due for timing belt and water pump so I did that. In retrospect I think I paid about $700 too much for it but I like a lot and the 325 is getting very hard too find. I say go for it. :D
